i- Self-inflicted

I dream that you hold me,

In my self-inflicted, lonely moments.

All I can think of,

Is how you’d embrace me

To bring back the human in me

The dreamer…the happy.

I’d like to imagine

How I would feel

Once the coldness is gone,

Once I rid myself

Of the bad memories

And their ongoing strain

when the warm arms are around.

I dream that you hold me,

Because that is the closest I could get to you.
